My cable box has a remote that's able to turn off and on my TV and switch the TV's sources. I haven't taken the TV's remote out of its original packaging.
It's 2019 - this is a solution in search of a problem.
- hombre_fatal 7y agoSeems by your posts you're assuming everyone already has a cable box + service since you think the TV saves you a mere HDMI cable. Meanwhile I'm not sure I've even had roommates or been to someone's house my age (25-40) in the last 5 years that had cable service. It's always the same: everyone just navigates to the TV's built-in Netflix/HBO/Amazon/etc. app and puts something on. If you think everyone in the world has a cable box, then I understand why you don't understand smart TVs. But your premise is mistaken.

Not to mention remote listening where you listen to audio on your phone from your TV. But part of the purpose of having a smart TV is that you don’t need cable.
